La Vuelta 2024 marked a new chapter for Soudal Quick-Step, as they rebranded to T-Rex Quick-Step for the Spanish Grand Tour. This transformation wasn’t just about a new name—it was a full-fledged campaign that took the cycling world by storm, both visually and competitively.
At the heart of this campaign was the limited-edition T-Rex jersey, a fierce and creative design by Castelli that immediately caught the attention of fans. Launched at the team’s pre-race press conference, the dino-themed jerseys symbolized power, resilience, and strength—qualities associated with both dinosaurs and cycling at the highest level. These jerseys became instant collector’s items, selling out at The Wolfpack Shop within just 48 hours after their release. Fans flocked to secure a piece of this iconic kit, cementing the campaign’s success off the road.
The T-Rex branding was more than just a playful theme—it tied into the promotion of Soudal’s T-Rex adhesives and sealants, aligning the strength of their products with the endurance required in cycling. The roaring success of the rebranding extended to the race itself, where T-Rex Quick-Step stood tall among the competition.
Mikel Landa, the team’s leader, put in a stellar performance, finishing 8th overall in the General Classification after three weeks of grueling racing. Landa’s strong showing, especially during the mountainous stages, reflected the team’s spirit of tenacity and strength—qualities that the T-Rex branding aimed to emphasize. Alongside Landa, teammates like Mauri Vansevenant also made their mark, securing top-10 finishes in breakaways and proving that the team’s roar wasn’t just for show.
Although the spotlight was on the jerseys and rebranding, T-Rex Quick-Step’s performance in La Vuelta ensured they were taken seriously as contenders. The blend of innovative marketing, fan engagement, and competitive racing made T-Rex Quick-Step one of the most memorable aspects of La Vuelta 2024.
As the dust settles, fans can only hope that more dino-themed gear will be made available in larger quantities in the future, but for now, those lucky enough to grab the limited-edition jerseys will treasure a piece of The Wolfpack history.
